It was a handsomo young faco turned
in such evident ' eagerness toward the

features were almost too regular for
masculine ideas of beauty ; but the firm
ray the red lips were set together and
the massive chin redeemed them from

He started to his feet as the crackling
of dried leaier'.and&wigs betrayed an
approaching footstep. Another mo

was beside him, panting from her rapid
approach.

1 1 . n rl . nw H T a P- fTT
since Lis wife's death Mr. Ingraham hod
no ono to influence him, for he consider
ed Dot a tnero child, to bo petted and
governed as though she were five years
of age, instead of a well grown girl of
eighteen, of more than ordinary capac
ity and good sense.
Affairs went on in this way foi sever
al months. Mr. Dinsmorc's calls grow
more frequent, and a strong pressure
was mado te bear upon Dot to mako her
listen to his suit, which was now openly
declared. She had now tried to discour
age him by treating him with marked
coldness and indifference; but he would
not take a repulse, and her life was
growing to be an unhappy one, her fa
ther's conversation being almost princip
ally upon the perfections of her suitor,
whom, at heart, she cordially detested,
th'oush doing her best to treat him with
courtesy.
Philip knew of his constant visits,
and beam rumors of an engagement
He grew gloomy and morose, and when
he chanced to meet Dot would pass her
in a way that made her poor little heart
ache.
So things went on from bad to worse,
until Dot would have been glad if her
inheritance had been sunk in the sea.
At last another actor appeared a young
girl, who created quite a sensation in
the quiet village. -She was from a city
in the far "West, and was very pretty,
and knew just what colors to choose for
her toilet to set off the tints of her
glowing brunette complexion.
Dot's heart felt like lead in her bosom,
when one day sho met the stranger
walking jauntily by Phillip's ado. She
was shortly afterwards introduced to
her, and for a few moments a hateful
spirit suggested that she would make
herself disagreeable ; but she resolutely
put the temptation away from her and
appeared her own natural, lovable self.
She soon ceased to wonder at Philip's
evident pleasure in Miss Belmont's soci
ety. She was so frank and cheerful
and sparkling in her conversation, that
she was won from her prejudice, and
they grew to be friends.
It was not long before Kate Belmont
knew the true state cf Dot's feelings
toward 0nua Dinsmorc. though Philip s
f me Tf5 seaieu
them. Dot lovod him as dearly as ever,
and the very intensity of her feelings for
him made her strangely shy of mcniion
ing him to even her dearest friend.
It was a great surprise when Kate
said to her one day, half jestingly :
"How strange that vou don't like
Mr. Dinsmore better 1 I have taken a
great fancy to him, but have studiouslv
avoided being even pleasant to him, for
rumor gave him to you ; and thinking
him your special property, I aidn't want
to plav with edged tools. list it vou
don t love him. I shall adopt dinorent
tactics, for I think he is perfect! v splcn
didl"
" ' "What is meat to one is poison to
another.' How truo ihote old adages
are : I don't think he cares for me. He
never looked at me before I came rich.
I wish old Jared Ingraham had left his
monev to same one else."
"Jared Ingraham," said Katt, mn
singly; where have I heard that name !
Oh, I know; I have the dearest old
friend out West, and it's her love fctory
which that name lias brought to my
mind. Something happened to separate
them when they were both very young,
and the left all her friends and ?e$Ued
in the West But she always remained
single, and to this dav is trae to the
memory of her old love. By the by,
her name is almost the same as veurs,
lonly its Dorothy Ingraham. instead of
Dot"
" Why," said Dot, "my name is Dor
othy. They onlv call me Dot for
short"
" I wonder if yon and Miss Ingraham
are related to each other. 1 am quite
sure that Jared Ingraham was her lover's
name. If it was the same person,
doesn't it seem strange that he should
have left his money to a young chit like
you, begging your ladyship's pardon, in
stead of his laithful old lover
Dot's face was a study as Kate rattled
on. It fairly shone.
"Kate," said she, "I sec it all!
am an interloper. Isn't it nice ! The
will said, I give and bequeath to my
dear cousin, Dorothy Ingraham that's
all I can remember verbatim, but that's
enough. AU the law terms in the
world wouldn't make it plainer to me.
We all thonght it strange that he should
have left it to me when ho never had
paid me the slightest attention when he
was alive ; but the lawyer said that to
his knowledge there -as no other per
son of that name, so I must be the one.
Give me your friends adcrcss, and I
will soon get to the bottom of the mat
ter."
Til give it to you, of course, but Crut
promise me not to say anything about it
until you are sure.
"I will keep silent until you give me
permission to seak, said Dot
She wrote at once to the old lady, and
in due time received a reply which con
firmed her suspicions. So she immedi
ately hegan to tmr. .;:ng 111 train so
thijt Miss Ingraham should receive her
rights.
A month had hardly gone by when
much to Dot's amusement Mr. Dins
more called and requested a private in
terview with her. She had noticed his
growing fondness for Miss Belmont's
society and half suspected the denoue
ment As sho went into tho room bo rose to
meet her, and for the first timo Dot felt
an emotion of sincere liking and respect
enter her heart for him. Under the in
fluence of genuine feeling he seemed a
different person to the plausible, polished
man of the world who had tried to palm
off the semblance of love upon her during
his unsatisfactory courtship.
"Miss Ingraham," he said, flushing as
he spoke, "I have come to make a con
fession, and ask your forgiveness. Not
for withdrawing my suit, for I know you
have never even liked, much less loved
tho unworthy man who stands before
you; but for persecuting you with my
unwelcome attentions. Under the light
which a -genuine passion haj shed upon
my actions I see how contemptible they
haVo b.n, and I wish to apologize to
you and mako my poaco before I dare
I
speak to tho young lady I love of my j
desire to win her for my wife. ill i
you forgive mo I
Dot held out her hnd. "With all
my heart, Mr. Dinsmorc, and I shall al
ways respect you for tho frank, manly
part you have acted at tho lat ' You
have idt bt tt wuhes for vour success."
Mr. Ingraham was at first very anjnr
at Oram Dinstnore's defection, but when
Dot saw! decidedly: "I would not have
married him if I Lad remained single all
my life," he dtterminnl to give up trying
to direct tho course of true love, making
a virtue of necessity, yet thinking him-
ecu a model lather.
Dot was willing that her father ehould
:lease himself with this delusion as long
as he withdrew his opposition to Philip's
coming to the house.
"When a few months after, the real
heiress, .Miss Dorothy Ingraham, ap
peared upon the scene, uncharitable tier-
sons said that Mr. Dinsmorc had knon
of the mistake.
But Kate Btilmont, his betrothed wife,
had the pleasant conseiousze&s that bbe
had won his heretofore mercenary heart
while he thought Dot the truo heiress,
and that he valued one glance of her
bright eves more than he did Dot s sup
posed thousands.
The real testatrix was very much taken
with her namesake, and would not con
sent to take more than half of the prop-
ert v. The mistake about her legacy bad
been the means of drawing her into the
society of a young relative of whose ex
istence she would otherwise have been
ignorant It proved very pleasant to
her to have such a treasure-trove of
warm, human affection, bestowed upon
her, for young Dorothy loved her aged
cousin very dearly, and was always
pleased to entertain her in her pretty
home, for she became 'he wife of Philip
Bertram, and the happiest little matron
nndcr the sun.

evil in San Francisco society. There
arc hundreds of jileasant houses that
never entertain because they cannot

millionaires. This has a tendency to
diicourage social gathering of the more
unpretentious kind. An association of
the kind we suggest would bring to it
nearly all of the young, most beautiful,
and most accomplished girls of society ;
all the young married ladies, who, being
wive3 of poor men, do not desire to im
pose upon them burdens of extravagant
dressing, and all the rich girls who have
sense enough to know that youth and
beauty are overmatches in attractiveness
to the display of dress and je wela. From
this class the wives would be chosen.

who, not being rich, will say io each

chances and toils of life's journey ; we
will content ourselves to be excluded
from social life because wo cannot afford
the costly expenditures it entails; we
will work for ourselves a life course along
that lower plane to which we are con
fined for want of money." It demands
a high moral courage for a young couple
to withdraw themselves from the asso
ciation of friends, and attempt to carve
out for themselves an independent
career; to live within their means when
their "means" is confined to the earn
ings of the young husband. All along
